You think I don't know what's really going on
I will not waste my time, writing any heartbreak songs
You saw something sweeter, something younger, something new
Your fickle, your flaky, your fake

Who are you?

Should I hold up another mirror?

If this is a personal grievance being aired here...please take it elsewhere. This is a place of friendship and sharing and compassion, not the place for spite and attacks on other members.

Genuine stories and lessons are always welcome so long as they do not hurt another.

Love and light.....

sunshiine,

thank you very much for your valuable feedback, of course your right, there is always a reflection, I will not deny the grain of truth I see in that.
This poem is a genuine rendition of my feelings, no names mentioned, just a neutral target in which my hurt had to vent. I was violated at the core of my being. Trust me compared to the cruel piece of writing I received, that inspired this lovely piece, I was very kind!

Sorry to hear that......
sometimes not everything is made known to all people...we are left to form our own images from our own perspectives and what we have experienced and the small fragments that are visible to us in our own journeys.
I am sorry for your pain and the things that caused it.
I guess each time the arrow pierces us, it points us to a new part of ourselves to explore. It calls us to take notice of something. Pain is our arrow to point out something we must take a good look at. This is coming from my own experience and learnings. (Osho Zen) I apologize if I sounded critical, I do believe in such things as forgiveness and compassion - somehow other feelings when aired cause me distress. Must be an arrow there pointing me in a certain direction too...like the mirror...reflecting something within that needs addressing.
Thank you for that.
It seems we all learn from one another.
All blessings to you for healing and happiness.

Sunshiine,

Thank you for your sincerity and blessings, it means alot coming from you!

Yes I have learned that I did not listen to that still small voice inside when it spoke to me to take a particular action. If I had of listened to that voice I could of avoided this whole angry fiasco. The universe is always helping me out, but sometimes my head gets in the way and messes up my peace of mind. Forgiveness and compassion will flow to others when I extend them to myself first, for my own weakness.

Love & light
